Deleted messages still showing up with timestamp

Hey all,

In previous ios versions, when you deleted individual messages from a conversion and then went back to the menu, it would move that conversation down the list to the last message in the conversation.

It seems that in the new ios after deleting a message the conversation stays were it was. So, if you delete all messages from today, the conversation will still stay with the other conversations from today, rather than being back down the list.

Seems a bit weird that the timestamp on the conversation remains at the last message despite the fact that it was deleted. I wonder if this can be fixed...

iPhone 6, iOS 8

Does anyone that represents Apple even read these topics anymore? Just look at how many unanswered topics exist in these forums. It's truly sad. You guys had a good product and are deliberately screwing it up and ignoring the consequences. At least that's the way it seems.

1288 views, no answers.

Just make something that works, and leave it alone.

Some obvious solutions: 1) put a passcode on your phone, 2) delete all of your text messages, and the extremely obvious 3) don't cheat.

My sympathies to your girlfriend, especially if she ever finds out she has a lying cheat of a boyfriend who disparages her sanity in public.

Facebook is not an Apple app. It works however FaceBook has decided is should work. You should take up any problems you have with that app with FaceBook.

Yep. Same problem on mine. Just leaving a comment in the hopes that it will draw Apple's attention to the issue.

It's an obvious privacy violation. Regardless of what I'm deleting and why, if someone were to go through my phone it would be obvious that information was missing. Revert the text scheme to the way it was before, with timestamps reverting to the last non-deleted message. Fix this Apple!

Meg, do be more considerate and understand that not everyone has your amazing moral compass, and don't disparage or libel them. Calling someone a liar is the most libelous thing you can do. And your post has been reported.

It is only libel if it's not true. Given that the poster admitted to the misbehavior, I think I'm in the clear on this one.

Welp...I just upgraded to iOS 8.3, hoping that this very annoying anomaly would finally get fixed. Alas, it hasn't.
